Is that information available to us? Has there been a study on how much seaweed is on our shores and where it is? It is said that in the Ceantar na nOileán-Leitir Móir-Leitir Mealláin area it has been overharvested, in other areas it is underharvested, and that a balance is required. Is there a study that provides us with that type of statistical information?
